Not comparable.

I suspect the Pontoon is having new roof sheets, given the timescale, which is a straight forward job.

Removing structural posts is a whole different ball game (pun intended).


Fair mate , is it a lot more ££££ to ?

No new roof no safety certificate?


Possibly but I’d imagine it’s more that the club have decided to make some quick, and in truth, simple improvement…

There’s a few grounds that lack any sort of roof, although these are becoming few and far between thankfully. That said, the roof at BP is no better or worse than many others. May be they’ve just decided to improve it…

Never one to correct your wisdom but on this occasion I can the work being done is simply down to getting that all important safety certificate..

Best hope it's done in time before next week. Having to relocate 1700+ STHs would be a disaster as I doubt we have space for them. I think it's most likely that this last minute piece of work is to obtain the safety certificate.

Relocate why?

Even if they don't get finished, there is no requirement for a roof on the stand.

You'll just get wet if it rains.

That’s because we had just been relegated and a certificate isn’t needed for non League unless ground capacity is more then 10k
